6 Why people choose Insulin Pumps over Shots Tighter Control With an insulin pump you are 6 times more likely to achieve your target A1C than with long acting insulins Fewer Hypoglycemic Episodes With Precise, timely insulin doses, you can cut your hypoglycemic events by 85% Better Predictability Traditional, long acting insulin can pool under the skin, resulting in uneven absorption rates causing unpredictable lows and highs. Insulin pumps use only rapid acting insulin which is absorbed with more predictability so you can deliver smaller, more precise doses of insulin when that s all your body needs. More Flexibility An insulin pump gives you more flexibility for life s unpredictable moments. Eat when you are hungry, delay a meal if you want, even broaden your food choices. Fewer Daily Shots With multiple daily shots you give yourself at least 120 shots every month. With insulin pump therapy, you don t require any insulin shots. You just change your infusion set 12 times per month and control your insulin delivery through the insulin pump. You can deliver your insulin discretely anytime, anywhere, with the push of a few buttons. Page 16 So you think your patients diabetes is controlled with an A1C less than 7?
